Johnny Cash was a towering figure in country music, known for his deep baritone voice and his rebellious 'Outlaw' persona. He famously wore all black on stage as a symbol of solidarity with the poor and oppressed. In 1968, he recorded 'At Folsom Prison,' a live album performed for inmates that became one of the most famous recordings in music history. Cash’s music blended country, rockabilly, blues, and gospel, with hits like 'I Walk the Line' and 'Ring of Fire.' Late in his career, he achieved a resurgence with the 'American Recordings' series, covering songs like Nine Inch Nails' 'Hurt.' Cash is one of the few artists to be inducted into the Rock and Roll, Country Music, and Songwriters Halls of Fame, representing the quintessential American storyteller.
